Notes Network Intro
Notes Network Intro
lahat ng device na connected. Advantage: mas mura. Disadvantage: would consume network
bandwidth.
Switch (intelligent hub), may switching table or address table na nasstore yung physical address or
media access control address ng devices na connected. Can deliver data to the correct port
Hubs and Switches are used to exchange data within LAN. Kung kailangang mag-exchange data outside a
local network, kailangan ng makakaread ng IP Address para maipasa yung datasa ibang network kaya
dun papasok ang Router.
Router routes data from one network to another based on their IP Address. Can be a switch and a hub.
THE ROUTER IS THE GATEWAY OF NETWORK.
Hubs and switches are used to create networks within the same network. While routers are used to
connect different networks.
Network Types
- PAN (personal area network) – personal level. Uses Bluetooth, infrared and NFC and a USB
cable.
- LAN (local area network) – group of devices located in the same building connected thru cable
- WLAN (Wireless LAN) – uses wifi (wireless fidelity) router to connect and communicate without
using cables.
- CAN (Campus area network or intranet) – type of network that joins 2 or more LANs together
within a limited area
- MAN (metropolitan area network) – larger than can. Spans over several buildings in city or town.
- SAN (storage area network) – focuses on storage large amounts of data
- WAN (wide area network) – largest type of network. The internet is an example of a WAN.
Network topologies
- Star topology
- Ring topology
- Bus topology
- Mesh Topology
- Infrastructure topology
IP means internet protocol
Network Cables
UTP Cable
- Unshielded
o 4 pairs of color coded
o Twisted to prevent electromagnetic interference
- Shielded
o With foil shield that covers the wire
o Adds a layer of protection
- Cable stripper – to open a wire
- Wire crimper - attaches the rj45 connector to the wire
- Coaxial Cable
Broadband Cable – sharing single line or same bandwidth kaya minsan mabagal
Coaxial Cable
- 25-400 mbps
- Gateway: modem, switch and wifi router combo
DSL or Digital Subscriber Line – uses 4 pin lines or telephone lines which is ginagamit sa telephone
Fiber Internet
- Fastest
- 1000mbps download and upload speed
- Uses light to send data
- More expensive
- New
Wireless Connection
Uses different radio frequencies
The medium is air or the data is sent in air
1. Wireless PAN
a. Wireless Personal Area Network – short distance
2. Wireless LAN
Mobile Communication
- The mic converts your voice into signals and transfers it to the antenna
Cable installation
Types of RJ45
RJ45
- Straight-through cable (patch cable): same ng wiring standard sa magkabilang dulo. Ginagamit
sa dissimilar devices, like computer to router.
- Crossover cable: magkaibang wiring standards sa magkabilang dulo (T568A-T568B), used in
similar devices, like computer to computer. Why? Because each cable has different function, has
sent and receive signals.
- Green color: transmit signal (stripe color is positive, negative yung plain color)
- Orange: receive signal
- Blue is unused
- TX transmit, RX receive
- Patch panel is used to connect circuits. Neat patch is the neat organizing of cabling
